Default Storage for Michaels/Joann $1 clear stamps

I just discovered that the packs of $1 stamps from Michaels and Joann fit perfectly in trading card binder pages. Each page holds 9 sets. I keep all my clear stamps in binders, so this is a great discovery for me. Hope it helps someone else!

That is what I do!! I put all my unmounted stamps in those trading card sheets. I found other sheets that are larger sections, maybe 4 or 5, and I use those for the larger sets. This makes life so much easier!! Really like the unmounted stamps. I just came across all of these Michaels stamps you all have been talking about!! My Michaels can't keep them in stock!!

they fit nicely in the SU reinker boxes if you have them too (I cut the top off and wrapped a strip of patterned paper around them)

I've been keeping my little Michael's acrylic stamps on a scrapper's ring. Each pkg has a nice hanging hole at the top for the ring to go through and the pkg opens at the other end so you don't even have to remove the set from the ring to use it.

I have "like stamps" on the same ring - thank you, thinking of you, special occasion. The loaded rings are tossed in a small drawer and are easy to grab and use without a lot of fuss. It's not a high tech solution, but is very user friendly!


P.S. For those who don't know what a scrapper's ring is, it is a metal ring that opens easily and latches securely in a little notch. They come in many sizes but my favorite is the 1 1/4" size because they hold a lot of pkgs of stamps. You can usually buy these individually at a scrap store for about 35 cents or in a package about $4(?).

I use the ATC books, and pages...You can get about 10 protective pages per binder...

Then you can also decorate the outside

I have mine in the Paper Sticker Binder from Crop in Style. There is a page that you can get has 8 pockets that size in the bottom section so if you put them in back to back you can get a whole set in one page with room at the top for other stamps. I used the PSB for all of my stamps (since I unmount everything)...but I think I am in need of a second one thanks to all of the enablers :P
